Instance Overview
Fight waves of assaults while trying to keep Wíli alive. There are 3 places to defend against assaults, each with a dwarf defender and a barricade.
- Defend the barricades in the west, south or east as the text pops up.
After Wíli has relocated to the Chamber of Mazarbul:
- When you get the text "Goblin Sappers are attacking the barricades!" you should leave the Twenty-first Hall and run to the north, to the way to Jazargund.
- If the text speaks of the "Southern Hallway" it actually is the hallway northwest of the Chamber of Mazarbul.
- When you get the text "A Pûlpum Berserker is attacking the Chamber of Mazarbul!" you should retreat to the Chamber of Mazarbul.
You can pick up scrolls in the middle and plant them as a banner near the barricades. These banners provide a special buff for your fellowship:
Banner of the Hammer-stroke
Banner of the Unwearied King
Banner of the Broken Siege
Banner of the Steadfast Defender
Banner of the Foe-tamer
Banner of the Valiant Heart
Boss and End Fight
Push back the final assault and defeat the commander of the Orcs Motsham during the final assault. Remember to loot the corpse before leaving.
- When you are fighting the orc boss in there, be prepared for two trolls to join the fight. It might be a good idea to CC them (stun/root/fear), since they do huge wound attacks of upto 3.5k damage (at level 55). If you choose to do so, be sure to fight the boss inside the room.
